Oh I see Kidd’s plan now. Save Exum for game 3 and unleash his turbo fresh legs.

Different game when the Celtics also have liabilities on the floor. Luka can attack Hauser on offense. Mavs can ignore Tillman on defense.

Luka didn't get back, Hauser hits a 3.

we'd be so much better off if quarters were only 10 minutes

Pretty poor finish to the quarter by Luka. He has to be smarter.

Terrible ending by Luka. Attacking the rim all quarter and let up at end.

Back to back maybe fouls on Luka 3pt attempts that gave Boston an easy 5 points.


It's shit like that that can mean the difference.

Really awful choices by Luka there.

Damn. All the good Luka did to start the quarter he gave back at the end. What a waste.

You mean if Luka can make good decisions for 12 minutes. That was once again two lazy threes leading to five quick transition points.

Luka settling for 3s when he could drive away against the Cs at will.

Luka has to understand that they can't afford wasted possessions against this team.

This game highlights the need for a consistent 3rd scorer who can take the load off Luka and Kyrie.

And of course Luka just has to be smarter.

Kidd staying calm drives me crazy but he has earned the benefit of the doubt. What I thought after the last play of the quarter...

This is a critical part of the game if we want to win. Boston is locked in and we are not. Need to snap out of it and start scoring again.
